Everybody loves Jay Cutler and rightfully so. He's going to be a really good QB but I think we should try and make him beat us.
Travis Henry had his way with us with the Titans last year. Now he's on a better team and playing a run defense that was even worse than last years.
J.P. Losman is going to have to be very efficient especially going up against the best CB combo in the league with Bly and Bailey.
If we can control the clock and win the turnover battle we have a really good shot at winning this game.
Also the Cover 2 is effective when you have the right players.
Penetrating DE's-Check
With Schobel we have one of the better pass rushers in the game and then we have Kelsay, Denney, Hargrove who are above average to good in that department.
1 Technique-1/2
Kyle Williams is already a fan favorite and we were lucky to have him in last year's draft but we need more than him. It's safe to say that Pat Williams if he was here would have solved our Run D problems by himself.
3 Technique-Incomplete
John McCargo has been injured and inconsistent thus far in his career. We really need him to step up.
Attacking LB's-Check
Crowell, Ellison and Posluszny are all attacking LB's but we still need depth at this postion. They are the youngest LB core in the league so there will be growing pains but all can cover well enough to play in this system.
Solid CB's-Incomplete
Terrence McGee and Ashton Youboty are the only quality CB's that we have on our roster right now. Jabari Greer is only good in Practice and Preseason and then he disappears.
Jason Webster and Kiwaukee Thomas are solid vets but we can do a lot better.
Safeties-Check
Donte Whitner and Ko Simpson are two of the biggest bright spots that we have on this team. As rookies they held their own and this year they'll be asked to do a lot more as Fewell gives them more chances to create plays on defense.
Solid depth with Leonard, Wendling and Wilson.

Cutler's certainly in a better position to succeed than he was last season. Healthy offensive line (mainly Matt Lepsis is back), added receiver/blocker in Daniel Graham, another year under Brandon Marshall's belt, and the addition of Travis Henry. It'll be interesting to see what kind of strides he's made since last season.
Denver has historically had trouble in Buffalo, and don't exactly thrive in the early games. They've also had letdowns in game 1 the last few seasons. We'll see what they look like.

Hi, guys. I'm a Broncos fan. Your team is a hell of a lot better than I thought, and you should have beat us. We got lucky. I wish you all the best, your team played hard and both sides were really getting after the ball.
but,
the real reason I wanted to write is to let you know that Kevin Everett is on everyone's mind, and we're all praying for him up here too. Puts everything in life in perspective when you see that type of injury...
peace.
